Bio

My name is Julien Caines, and I am a senior at Santiago High School, where I currently hold a 4.32 GPA. I am passionate about innovation and driven by a desire to make a positive impact through engineering. My goal is to become an engineer and eventually start my own company, creating technologies that improve people’s lives—whether by enhancing the tools we use every day or designing new solutions for real-world challenges. I have big plans for my future, and I am committed to working hard to make them a reality. Scholarships will help me continue my education, pursue opportunities in engineering, and stay focused on turning my ambitions into meaningful contributions to my community and the world.
